Some up votes here if possible. I'm trying to up vote everyone who seems to reasonably belong here. This is the first time I wish to be a mod and get rid of some of the extreme hate that has arrived. This never happened before. God bless our mods, they are in for a rough time. If Reddit wanted us out, why are the haters there following us here?
Don't engage the hate. Censorship is the supplyer of newcomers to voat.
Be rational and discuss productively. If someone wants to be a dick leave em be and move on.
Outcompete the ragemob by upvoating rational, not by silencing the irrational. If they have nowhere tto vent they will become more dangerous, pull them with exposure to quality discourse. Use diviation towards the mean to increase quality
the reason you have so much hate coming your way is because your mods are censoring people, if you need such a heavily moderated safe space then go back to reddit where you belong
Best thing anyone can do is completely ignore the shills. Let them rant... in a room where they are alone. After all, if you argue with a kRaZy person, eventually, it will make you kRaZy.

Yes, this. The best tool to fight them is to just not give up with researching and providing quality conversation. Not feeding them.

Maybe for some, but it seems we are being attacked by a few shills, who keep creating new accounts.
